  • Group Health Insurance includes vision benefits.
    • This component consists of payments for accrued unused vacation leave made in accordance with the Research Foundation Leave Policy to employees who have terminated, changed accruing status, or transferred. It also includes payments for absences over 30 calendar-days that are charged to sick leave.

New York State Rate

The rate becomes effective July 1 in conjunction with the beginning of the fiscal year observed by State University of New York (SUNY).

Rate Approval Document

The fringe benefit rates are established with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). The annual approval process encompasses updates to the negotiation agreements just for those campuses that have large program costs; however, the final DHHS approval process applies to all SUNY locations administered by the RF.
In DHHS's January 31, 2013 letter to the RF, DHHS states that "the fringe benefit rates that were negotiated apply to all SUNY campuses administered by the Research Foundation." Fixed rates for fiscal year 2014 and provisional rates for fiscal year 2015 are also outlined in that letter. The letter serves as an approval document for those campuses whose individual rate agreement was not amended.

Budgeting with the Rates

The approved fringe benefit rates must be used in all applications that request salary support beyond January 31, 2013.

Budgeting for Future Years

For fiscal years beginning on or after July 1, 2013, the following approach is recommended:
  • Not approved rates but can be used according to sponsor guidelines
